Скачать или смотреть Watch Part 1 Reckoning with The Primal Wound

Reckoning with The Primal Wound is an unofficial film adaptation inspired by Nancy Verrier’s groundbreaking book The Primal Wound. Produced with the participation of the author herself, this documentary explores the profound and often unseen impact of adoption on adoptees, birth mothers, and families.

Created by adoptee filmmaker Rebecca Autumn Sansom, along with her first mother, Dr. Jill Hawkins, and with Nancy Verrier’s insightful commentary—this film offers a compassionate and thought-provoking introduction to the idea of the primal wound. Featuring personal stories from adoptees like Doris Blumenthal, as well as expert perspectives, the 84-minute documentary provides a gentle yet impactful entry point into this groundbreaking theory.

If you're curious or feeling the effects of adoption, we recommend watching this film to gain understanding and insight. For deeper exploration, consider reading Verrier’s books, including The Primal Wound and Coming Home to Self, or newer publications like Adoption: Unfiltered by Sara Easterly, Kelsey Vander Vliet Ranyard, Lori Holden, as well as other memoirs and resources linked on our website.

We also collaborate with highly qualified, adoption-competent therapists around the world—if you need support after viewing, don’t hesitate to reach out at [email protected].

Join us in raising awareness and healing the wounds of adoption—one story at a time.
